Incredible
First of all, I want to say it is f****** amazing that this is here on this site. I am the one who uploaded the Math-A-Thon 2 game here at Archive.org.
...
Allow me to start from the beginning. So years and years ago (probably in 2006, since that is when Math-A-Thon 2 was released), one of my siblings had brought home the Math-A-Thon 2 CD-ROM from school as some sort of St. Jude's educational fun thing or promo fundraiser or something, I'm not totally sure. We had played it, and it went into our disk cabinet, seldom to see the light of day again. Fast forward to 2014, and I had gained an appreciation for old CD-ROMs and subsequently had gotten into archiving them at theisozone.com, which was at the time the largest ISO filesharing website I had known about. I wanted to contribute what I could from my small CD-ROM collection, so I wanted to upload anything they didn't have. Turns out, I still had Math-A-Thon 2. So, up it went. Fast forward to September 2018, and I find out that theisozone.com is now defunct, likely rebranding as a different website with allegedly malicious intentions. This was disappointing, but what are you gonna do. There were few other big ISO sharing websites like that still in existence that I had known. A couple months later in November of 2018, I realize like an idiot that Archive.org exists, and they allow sharing of classic CD-ROM ISOs! So I start uploading my old collection, and turns out that I still had Math-A-Thon 2. Up it went again. At this point, I had realized that I had been unable to find other ISOs of the game elsewhere online over the years, aside from a few used copies available for purchase at various online retailers. Fastforward to September of 2020, and I am browsing my uploads, and for some reason I decide to click the author of Math-A-Thon 2, fully expecting nothing else to show except my own upload. Turns out, this upload of the original Math-A-Thon game exists. I am speechless. I don't know what else to say. This game, Math-A-Thon 2, which has effectively gained mythical status in my psyche due to how obscure it is, has the ORIGINAL FIRST GAME uploaded to Archive.org by this guy, MarcusTheGarbageMan. Wow. This series, which I had thought was among the most forgotten of them all, was not so forgotten after all. All I can say is thank you. I can die in peace. -Goldenwinged, Sept. 2020
